PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a lightweight MMA rules bout between Rayce Gracie (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Marlo Stanfield (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Gracie comes to the cage accompanied by Glitch mob - We can make the world stop. Stanfield has chosen Timber as his entrance music. I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Marlo Stanfield was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
